My doctor changed my diagnosis to "Endocrine Disorder" in November without me asking--because he saw the writing on the wall.

Ask your doctors to do the same--Just to protect your access to life-saving medication.

Reminder to contact your doctor and change your diagnosis from whatever variant of "trans" and put "unspecified hormone disorder" or something similar

The House Republican reconciliation bill will now ban both surgeries and HRT prescription under Medicaid for all Americans.

Earlier, I posted that it wouldn’t affect HRT. This is incorrect.

I was mistaken, because the bill refers to medications for trans people… as “procedures.”

Hey guys- White nationalists have helped a white woman in Minnesota raise $300k after she was filmed calling a five-year-old Black child the n-word.

The local NAACP chapter is fundraising for the boy and his family to get legal help. The least we could do is out-fundraise the nazis.

Donate here:

You know I was asking myself "Are they going to use the Toon border or the Cog border for Lord Lowden Clear?" And i'm delighted to see that the answer is Yes.

if you wanna participate but you still wanna support streamers, support them through other means like a ko-fi or a patreon. For some streamers this is their only source of income. blame CEOs not the working class

Trans kids are not a bargaining chip. Before legislation comes up for a vote on Monday, write and call State Senator Elena Parent to tell her to vote NO on anti-trans bills SB 30 and SB 185!

URGENT. Morrigan is a Turkish trans woman who needs to get out of her home country, as her home country is rolling out policies that will outlaw being trans, queer, or otherwise 'sex-defying'. Her home situation is NOT safe either. Anything will help, thank you.

ahhhhh kill me already

my country has decided now that if you ever take hormones, or get body altering "trans" surgeries you will be jailed, if you are seen wearing "sex-defying" clothing, if you ask to be called a name that "doesnt fit your assigned sex", you will be jailed

new law in the making about lgbt rights in turkey

Strongly encouraging everyone to submit a ticket to Discord's system. Remember to reply to the auto-email to force them to assign a human to read it.

Good Day,

It has come to my attention that Discord has implemented a new feature for "image generation enhancement" options.
These tools pose significant copyright issues for anyone posting content, especially for European users and they have been enabled without the users' explicit consent and without and readily available option to opt-out of their use for either themselves or any users of any servers they admin.
They also represent a nightmare for moderation duties for those who want to keep curated spaces and keep using the platform without spam in an era in which bots and misinformation are one of the biggest problems of the overall internet experience.

As such I expect that Discord, like other online services, will allow for full deactivation of these features upon request and cease any push forward immediately, as they go against Discord's own Terms of Use in "(g) Restriction on Use of Discord Data. Provider will not use any of Discord Data to which Provider has access to train any algorithm or model, including at large language models, generative AI, or other artificial intelligence technology."

If a removal of these features is not possible or if staff fails to comply in the near future or at all, I will look into moving to another service and cancel my NITRO subscription immediately, as I use it for my business and I can't risk my intellectual property to be stolen and used any further by genAI in my own server or in others through the "Forward" tool.
